Abstract: The invention concerns a device for the high temperature heat treatment of a ligneous material such as wood in order to preserve the properties and dimensional stability of said wood in the presence of humidity. Said device comprises a sealed chamber including an internal partition (19) defining a heat chamber (20) and an opening (21) emerging into a treatment zone (22) wherein a load (11) of stacked wood elements is introduced. The chamber (20) contains burners (23) for heating a heat-conveying medium. A nozzle (26) associated with a deflector enables to homogenize the gas stream emitted by each burner before it enters the treatment zone (22). Ventilators (28) co-operate with the opening (21) to cause the heat-conveying medium to circulate through the load (11). A ramp of water sprayers (30) humidifies the treatment zone (22) when the temperature in the chamber is rising, stabilises said temperature during treatment and cools the chamber after treatment. An adjustable screen (42) maintains a constant pressure in the treatment zone (22). Orifices (44) co-operate with a discharge circuit provided with a sealed regulator valve (49) form means regulating the pressure in the chamber.

Abstract: A transformer core made of magnetic strips is presented for use in a power distribution transformer. The transformer core has a desired height and a substantially cylindrical toroidal shape produced by winding a multi-layer structure about a central axis of the toroid in a spiral like manner. Each layer in the structure is composed of a predetermined number of magnetic strips arranged along the central axis with air gaps naturally existing between each two adjacent strips of the layer. A number <i>n</i> of layers in the structure is defined by the magnetic properties of the strips. The layers are shifted with respect to each other a predetermined distance along the central axis such that each of the air gaps in one layer is overlapped by (n-1) strips of the other layers of the structure.

Abstract: The invention is related to a novel compound represented by NdHA4 wherein A is a carboxylate, and to a diene polymerization catalyst using the novel compound. NdHA4 has monomeric structure and does not contain water, bases and salts. NdHA4 is mixed with a halogen compound and an organic metal compound to prepare a catalyst system. The catalyst system in the polymerization of 1,3-butadiene (BD) or isoprene produces high cis polydiene with a high activity (100 g BD/4.0 x 10<-5> mole Nd) and without gel formation. The polydiene thus obtained is useful for tires and golf balls and as a polystyrene modifier.

Abstract: Process and equipment for separating fat from waste water and reducing the amount of fat that has to be taken care of from restaurants, bakeries, food industries etc. While wastewater is added the equipment functions as a conventional fat separator, i.e. collects and accumulates fat. When the daily shutdown begins the equipment is converted to a bioreactor. In this bioreactor the accumulated fat is remixed with water and broken down biologically with the aid of microorganisms, which break down fat, proteins, starch etc. The microorganisms are added as a liquid culture of living organisms. Co-ordination of air injection and addition of the liquid culture achieve even distribution of microorganisms. The bioreactor function is sustained by air injection and ceases when the air injection is shut off. Equipment for converting a conventional fat separator to a fat separator/bio-reactor is described.

Abstract: A prosthetic knee system has a tibial component and a modular sleeve. The tibial component has a tibial tray, a stem and keels extending between the distal surface of the tray and the stem. The modular sleeve has an oval proximal surface with spaced reliefs. The reliefs and keels are sized, shaped and positioned to allow the modular sleeve to be mounted on the tibial component with the stem of the tibial component received in the interior channel of the sleeve and the keels of the tibial component received in the spaced reliefs of the modular sleeve, and to allow for some relative rotation between the tibial component and the sleeve. The system gives the surgeon the freedom to implant the tibial component alone, with the keels providing stability, or, in the case of bone deficiency, to implant the tibial component and sleeve as an assembly. <IMAGE>

Abstract: The Prothrombin Time (PT) is used as a screening test for blood coagulation factor deficiencies and for monitoring oral anti-coagulant therapy using coumadin. Thromboplastin reagents activate the extrinsic pathway of coagulation and are the basis for the Prothrombin Time (PT) test. This invention describes the use of barium sulfate and chaotropic agents, and nonionic detergents, for the extraction of sensitive thromboplastin reagents from tissue. Extraction with sodium thiocyanate alone also greatly enhances thromboplastin sensitivity. This invention should be useful for all thromboplastins and will improve their sensitivity for all PT-based tests and specific assays.

Abstract: A method of interrupting the expression of a macromolecular synthesis operon in bacteria comprising the step of binding an antisense oligonucleotide to a single stranded DNA or to a mRNA transcribed from the macromolecular synthesis operon. The antisense oligonucleotide can be either sequence specific to a unique intergenic sequence or a sequence specific to a bacterial homologous sequence. By interrupting the expression of the macromolecular synthesis operon bacterial infections can be treated. Examples of antisense oligonucleotides are 5'CATCCAAGCAGTGGTAAAACTGTTT 3', 5'TCACCGATCGGCGTTTCCA 3', 5'GGCCCCGATTTTAGCAA 3', 5'CTTGCGTAAGCGCCGGGGG 3', and 5'TATTCGATGCTTTAGTGC 3'. The ability of the antisense oligonucleotide to bind the mRNA or single stranded DNA also allows the identification of the bacteria by using a unique intergenic antisense oligonucleotide to bind to the single stranded DNA or to the mRNA transcribed form the macromolecular synthesis operon. A method for competitively inhibiting the protein products of the MMS operon with oligonucleotides is also disclosed.

Abstract: A key security system provides for the reproduction of secure keys by using distributed key generation data and a distributed encrypted prekey. The system encrypts program key generation data (17) with a program key prekey (18) in accordance with a first encryption algorithm to produce the program key (20); processes the program key (20) to produce a keystream (25); and processes an information signal (26) with the keystream to produce a scrambled information signal (27). The program key prekey (18) is encrypted with a category key (22) in accordance with a second encryption algorithm to produce an encrypted program key prekey (23). The scrambled information signal (27) the program key generation data (17) and the encrypted program key prekey (23) are distributed to descramblers. The descrambler within the key security system decrypts the distributed encrypted program key prekey (23) with the category key (22) in accordance with the second encryption algorithm to reproduce the program key prekey (18); encrypts the distributed program key generation data (17) with the reproduced program key prekey (18) in accordance with the first encryption algorithm to reproduce the program key (20); processes the reproduced program key (20) to reproduce the keystream (25); and processes the distributed scrambled information signal (27) with the reproduced keystream (25) to descramble the distributed scrambled information signal. The key generation data includes authorization data that must be processed by the authorization processor (35) in the descrambler in order to enable the descrambler. The use of authorization data as key generation data protects the authorization data from spoofing attacks. When more data must be protected than a single operation of the encryption algorithm can support, then additional data blocks are protected by chaining the system, wherein the output from one stage forms part of the input to the next. The key generation data for the program key includes a sequence number securely associated with the category key to thereby "timelock" program key reproduction to the use of a current category key and thus prevent an attack based upon the use of an obsolete category key.
